    What is second hand fabric though? Is it coming from businesses that don’t need it anymore? Or is the shop selecting things that could be used as fabric, e.g. old curtains or so?

      I expect it varies depending on the store, but a place near me has things like remnants and ends of rolls, upholstery fabric sample books, offcuts of things like leather (the bits left around the edges after the pieces are cut out) and the ends of elastic and lace rolls that are too small for manufacturers to be bothered with but perfect for home use.
